AFAIK there's no limit on the QUERY_STRING now. Even if I've
always read that there's a limit on the GET method, I have never found the
exact size written on some resources (RFC of HTTP1/1 included). If you know
something more exact please tell me, but for example today I just tried
with my Apache (1.3.12) to request a URL whose size was bigger than 3K. And
no problems.
Do you know something more reliable than mine regarding that?
Ciao and thanks
